Today I read several comments on local news that were essentially saying that the economy is important and that if we have to let some old and weak people die then so be it. Working is more important, and staying closed down for too long will cause more deaths than the virus. Then they applauded trump and said that we need to listen to elected officials and not the cdc... who were not elected to lead the country. I’m talking about around 100 comments that agreed with this line of thinking. The store are packed and too many in my city are not taking this seriously.

The rich getting the poor to go to work, because their bank balances are tanking...
Then when the poor start dying... "Ohh, didn't you have healthcare?"
